Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1884

Tina felt frustrated listening to Zoey's nagging and reminded her, saying, "Ms. Davis, Dr. Craw is your superior."

Zoey was dumbfounded. It was because Tina was always easy to talk to that Zoey decided to get insider news from her.

"Uhh, Tina…" Zoey wanted to explain.

"As an employee, if you go around looking to get gossip about your superior, you’ll only cause others to be dissatisfied with you. It’s not like you’re a newbie who had just entered the workforce either, so you should already know this,” Tina said. In the past, Zoey was never the type to do things without thinking twice. It was probably because she mingled too much with Jenni and turned out like this.

"I'm sorry for being a busybody, Tina." After being lectured, Zoey’s back had started breaking out in a cold sweat.

The waiter came over while carrying meal sets that had been wrapped up for takeaway. Tina took hers, looked at Zoey, and reminded her again. "Don't ever be used by others without you realizing it."

"Got it." Zoey noticed Tina was serious and dared not say too much at that moment.

It was Jenni who had encouraged her to approach Tina and get insider news. She was a busybody and got lost in her thoughts, which was how she ended up approaching Tina.

After listening to Tina's strict lecture, Zoey noticed she had done something she should not have.

After Tina left, Zoey returned to her table while feeling down.

Before she even sat down, Jenni came over to gossip with her. “How did it go? What did Tina say?"

Zoey looked at Jenni with some resentment. If she had not listened to Jenni, she would not have gotten lectured by Tina. The thought of it made her mood sink lower.

Jenni got anxious and pestered her, saying, "Come on, say something. What did Tina tell you?”

"She didn't say anything." Feeling sad, Zoey picked up her milk tea and took a sip of it.

Jenni looked at her, feeling suspicious. "She didn't say anything? How is that possible? I saw you two speaking for a long while."

Zoey still did not say a word.

Jenni got mad and said, "We're besties. I've been taking good care of you during work. Now that you’ve found out something but you’re not telling me, don’t you think it’s inappropriate of you?”

"Ms. Lynn, Dr. Craw is my superior!" After being pestered by Jenni, Zoey lost her temper and pushed her milk tea on the table. She exerted a little too much force, so the cup produced a small sound when it came into contact with the table.

Jenni was stunned and bit her lip. She stared at Zoey for some time before asking, "What are you trying to say?"

"You knew that Dr. Craw is my superior, yet you still asked me to ask about her gossip. You said we're besties, but you’re treating me as a tool. Did you ever think about my future when you told me to go ask about my superior’s personal matters?” Zoey glanced at Jenni coldly. This time, she had really seen through Jenni's true colors.

"All I did was just ask you to get some insider information. Why are you so worked up? If you don't wish to tell me, then forget it." Jenni had no reason to argue back after being blasted by Zoey. She picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip. "There's no point in saying anything more. From now on, don’t blame me for not taking good care of you at work."

"Your department is so far away from mine. You can't even look after me." Zoey got up, spun around, and left.

Jenni glanced at Zoey's back as the latter walked away. She muttered in dissatisfaction, “How did this brat suddenly become so smart? Darn it. I just asked her to get some gossip. Why is she being so serious? It seems it's not easy to manipulate those around Luca."

She took out her phone and scrolled through her photo album.

Earlier, she had witnessed the entire exchange in the lobby and sneakily recorded it with her phone.

Since she was not standing too far away, she was able to take a clearer video. She looked at the man's face and touched her chin, saying, "Do you think if you don’t tell me about it, I won’t be able to investigate it?”

Jenni sent her relative, who was a detective, a photo of that man. She was feeling thrilled. She wanted to seek her relative’s help to find out that man's identity.

She was jealous of Luca because she received special treatment from Luke. Hence, she would investigate anything that might have the chance of making Luca leave a bad impression on Luke.
